    I posted that ~45 weeks ago at another site and when I opened the thread I saw that somebody quote-commented it. To be honest - I didn't even remember which mass shooting had just happened at that time. It was Uvalde - of course.

    There’s an American law that’s colloquially called “the make my day law,” which is from a movie about a vigilante cop who kills people played by Clint Eastwood lol

    The term "make my day law" came to be used in the United States in 1985 when Colorado passed a law that shielded people from any criminal or civil liability for using force against a home invader, including deadly force.[19] (The law's nickname is a reference to the line "Go ahead, make my day" (meaning 'do something so I have an excuse to kill you') uttered by actor Clint Eastwood's character "Dirty Harry" Callahan in the 1983 police film Sudden Impact.)

    Although castle doctrine is good, leave it to the Americans to be excited over killing a person
